The Guru (2002)

I like Marisa Tomei, so I thought, ‘Sure, why not? It can’t be as bad as the cover suggests.’ I made a grievous error.
There’s a porn star, a clingy new-age seeker of spirituality and a gobshite in a turban that becomes the Guru of sex. Now if anyone asks you what the film is about you can tell them without having to ever endure it.

Christ.

The cover screams "SHITFEST ALERT".

I know, it's a deafening scream. I had a moment of weakness.
